Abstract
Alternative splicing can often result in the expression of distinct protein isoforms from a single gene, with specific composition and properties. SH3-containing GRB2-like protein 3-interacting protein 1 (Sgip1) is a brain-enriched protein that regulates clathrin-mediated endocytosis and interferes with the internalization of cannabinoid receptor 1. Several research groups have studied the physiological importance of Sgip1, and four Sgip1 protein isoforms have been described to date, while the NCBI Gene database predicts the expression of 20 splice variants from the Sgip1 gene in mice. In this work, we cloned 15 Sgip1 splice variants from the mouse brain, including 11 novel splice variants. The cloned splice variants differed in exon composition within two Sgip1 regions: the membrane phospholipid-binding domain and the proline-rich region. All the Sgip1 splice isoforms had similar stability and comparable ability to inhibit the internalization of cannabinoid receptor 1. None of the isoforms influenced the internalization of the µ-opioid receptor. We confirm the expression of Sgip1 splice variants described in previous studies or predicted in silico. Our data provide a basis for further studies exploring the significance of Sgip1 splicing, and we suggest a new classification of Sgip1 splice variants to unify their nomenclature.

Abstract
The multidomain adaptor protein amphiphysin-1 (Amph1) is an important coordinator of clathrin-mediated endocytosis in non-neuronal cells and synaptic vesicle (SV) endocytosis at central nerve terminals. Amph1 contains a lipid-binding N-BAR (Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs) domain, central proline-rich (PRD) and clathrin/AP2 (CLAP) domains, and a C-terminal SH3 domain. Amph1 interacts with both lipids and proteins, with all of these interactions required for SV endocytosis, with the exception of the Amph1 PRD. The Amph1 PRD associates with the endocytosis protein endophilin A1, however, the role of this interaction in SV endocytosis has not been investigated. In this study, we set out to determine whether the Amph1 PRD and its interaction with endophilin A1 was essential for efficient SV endocytosis at typical small central synapses. To achieve this, domain-specific interactions of Amph1 were validated using in vitro GST pull-down assays, with the role of these interactions in SV endocytosis determined in molecular replacement experiments in primary neuronal culture. Using this approach, we confirmed important roles for CLAP and SH3 domain interactions of Amph1 in the control of SV endocytosis. Importantly, we identified the interaction site for endophilin A1 within the Amph1 PRD and exploited specific binding mutants to reveal a key role for this interaction in SV endocytosis. Finally, we determined that the formation of the Amph1-endophilin A1 complex is dependent on the phosphorylation status of Amph1-S293 within the PRD and that the phosphorylation status of this residue is essential for efficient SV regeneration. This work, therefore, reveals a key role for the dephosphorylation-dependent Amph1-endophilin A1 interaction in efficient SV endocytosis.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) deficiency disorder (CDD) is a severe early-onset epileptic encephalopathy resulting mainly from de novo mutations in the X-linked CDKL5 gene. To determine whether loss of presynaptic CDKL5 function contributes to CDD, we examined synaptic vesicle (SV) recycling in primary hippocampal neurons generated from Cdkl5 knockout rat males. Using a genetically encoded reporter, we revealed that CDKL5 is selectively required for efficient SV endocytosis. We showed that CDKL5 kinase activity is both necessary and sufficient for optimal SV endocytosis, since kinase-inactive mutations failed to correct endocytosis in Cdkl5 knockout neurons, whereas the isolated CDKL5 kinase domain fully restored SV endocytosis kinetics. Finally, we demonstrated that CDKL5-mediated phosphorylation of amphiphysin 1, a putative presynaptic target, is not required for CDKL5-dependent control of SV endocytosis. Overall, our findings reveal a key presynaptic role for CDKL5 kinase activity and enhance our insight into how its dysfunction may culminate in CDD.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Loss of cyclin-dependent kinase like 5 (CDKL5) function is a leading cause of monogenic childhood epileptic encephalopathy. However, information regarding its biological role is scarce. In this study, we reveal a selective presynaptic role for CDKL5 in synaptic vesicle endocytosis and that its protein kinase activity is both necessary and sufficient for this role. The isolated protein kinase domain is sufficient to correct this loss of function, which may facilitate future gene therapy strategies if presynaptic dysfunction is proven to be central to the disorder. It also reveals that a CDKL5-specific substrate is located at the presynapse, the phosphorylation of which is required for optimal SV endocytosis.

Abstract
The development and function of the central nervous system rely on the microtubule (MT) and actin cytoskeletons and their respective effectors. Although the structural role of the cytoskeleton has long been acknowledged in neuronal morphology and activity, it was recently recognized to play the role of a signaling platform. Following this recognition, research into Microtubule Associated Proteins (MAPs) diversified. Indeed, historically, structural MAPs—including MAP1B, MAP2, Tau, and MAP6 (also known as STOP);—were identified and described as MT-binding and -stabilizing proteins. Extensive data obtained over the last 20 years indicated that these structural MAPs could also contribute to a variety of other molecular roles. Among multi-role MAPs, MAP6 provides a striking example illustrating the diverse molecular and cellular properties of MAPs and showing how their functional versatility contributes to the central nervous system. In this review, in addition to MAP6’s effect on microtubules, we describe its impact on the actin cytoskeleton, on neuroreceptor homeostasis, and its involvement in signaling pathways governing neuron development and maturation. We also discuss its roles in synaptic plasticity, brain connectivity, and cognitive abilities, as well as the potential relationships between the integrated brain functions of MAP6 and its molecular activities. In parallel, the Collapsin Response Mediator Proteins (CRMPs) are presented as examples of how other proteins, not initially identified as MAPs, fall into the broader MAP family. These proteins bind MTs as well as exhibiting molecular and cellular properties very similar to MAP6. Finally, we briefly summarize the multiple similarities between other classical structural MAPs and MAP6 or CRMPs.In summary, this review revisits the molecular properties and the cellular and neuronal roles of the classical MAPs, broadening our definition of what constitutes a MAP.

Abstract
Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) α is the first identified isoform of the well-known tumor suppressor PTEN. PTENα has an evolutionarily conserved 173-aa N terminus compared with canonical PTEN. Recently, PTENα has been shown to play roles in multiple biologic processes including learning and memory, cardiac homeostasis, and antiviral immunity. Here, we report that PTENα maintains mitral cells in olfactory bulb (OB), regulates endocytosis in OB neurons, and controls olfactory behaviors in mice. We show that PTENα directly dephosphorylates the endocytic protein amphiphysin and promotes its binding to adaptor-related protein complex 2 subunit β1 (Ap2b1). In addition, we identified mutations in the N terminus of PTENα in patients with Parkinson disease and Lewy-body dementia, which are neurodegenerative disorders with early olfactory loss. Overexpression of PTENα mutant H169N in mice OB reduces odor sensitivity. Our data demonstrate a role of PTENα in olfactory function and provide insight into the mechanism of olfactory dysfunction in neurologic disorders.-Yuan, Y., Zhao, X., Wang, P., Mei, F., Zhou, J., Jin, Y., McNutt, M.

Abstract
Sidoli, Kulej, and Garcia discuss their view of what mass spectrometry brings to cell biology today and in the future. Mass spectrometry (MS) is an essential part of the cell biologist’s proteomics toolkit, allowing analyses at molecular and system-wide scales. However, proteomics still lag behind genomics in popularity and ease of use. We discuss key differences between MS-based -omics and other booming -omics technologies and highlight what we view as the future of MS and its role in our increasingly deep understanding of cell biology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND During neocortical development, multiple voltage- and ligand-gated ion channels are differentially expressed in neurons thereby shaping their intrinsic electrical properties. One of these voltage-gated ion channels, the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) channel and its current I(h), is an important regulator of neuronal excitability. Thus far, studies on an early I(h) appearance in rodent neocortex are missing or conflicting. Therefore, we focused our study on perinatal neocortical I(h) and its properties. RESULTS In the perinatal rat neocortex we observed a rapid increase in the number of neurons exhibiting I(h). Perinatal I(h) had unique properties: first, a pronounced cAMP sensitivity resulting in a marked shift of the voltage sufficient for half-maximum activation of the current towards depolarized voltages and second, an up to 10 times slower deactivation at physiological membrane potentials when compared to the one at postnatal day 30. The combination of these features was sufficient to suppress membrane resonance in our in silico and in vitro experiments. Although all four HCN subunits were present on the mRNA level we only detected HCN4, HCN3 and HCN1 on the protein level at P0. HCN1 protein at P0, however, appeared incompletely processed. At P30 glycosilated HCN1 and HCN2 dominated. By in silico simulations and heterologous co-expression experiments of a 'slow' and a 'fast' I(h) conducting HCN channel subunit in HEK293 cells, we mimicked most characteristics of the native current, pointing to a functional combination of subunit homo- or heteromeres. CONCLUSION Taken together, these data indicate a HCN subunit shift initiated in the first 24 hours after birth and implicate a prominent perinatal role of the phylogenetically older HCN3 and/or HCN4 subunits in the developing neocortex.

Abstract
An encouraging approach for the diagnosis and effective therapy of immunological pathologies, which would include cancer, is the identification of proteins and phosphorylated proteins. Disease proteomics, in particular, is a potentially useful method for this purpose. A key role is played by protein phosphorylation in the regulation of normal immunology disorders and targets for several new cancer drugs and drug candidates are cancer cells and protein kinases. Protein phosphorylation is a highly dynamic process. The functioning of new drugs is of major importance as is the selection of those patients who would respond best to a specific treatment regime. In all major aspects of cellular life signalling networks are key elements which play a major role in inter- and intracellular communications. They are involved in diverse processes such as cell-cycle progression, cellular metabolism, cell-cell communication and appropriate response to the cellular environment. A whole range of networks that are involved in the regulation of cell development, differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and immunologic responses is contained in the latter. It is so necessary to understand and monitor kinase signalling pathways in order to understand many immunology pathologies. Enrichment of phosphorylated proteins or peptides from tissue or bodily fluid samples is required. The application of technologies such as immunoproteomic techniques, phosphoenrichments and mass spectrometry (MS) is crucial for the identification and quantification of protein phosphorylation sites in order to advance in clinical research. Pharmacodynamic readouts of disease states and cellular drug responses in tumour samples will be provided as the field develops. We aim to detail the current and most useful techniques with research examples to isolate and carry out clinical phosphoproteomic studies which may be helpful for immunology and cancer research. Different phosphopeptide enrichment and quantitative techniques need to be combined to achieve good phosphopeptide recovery and good up- and-down phospho-regulation protein studies.

Abstract
Large-scale comparative phosphoproteomics studies have frequently been done on whole cells or organs by conventional bottom-up mass spectrometry approaches, that is, at the phosphopeptide level. Using this approach, there is no way to know which protein isoforms the phosphopeptide signal originated from. Also, as a consequence of the scale of these studies, important information on the localization of phosphorylation sites in subcellular compartments is not surveyed. As a case study, we investigated whether the isoforms of dynamin I (dynI), at the whole brain and subcellular level, had differential phosphorylation. We first established that the dynI isoforms xa, xb, and xd were expressed in nerve terminals. Our investigation revealed that dynI xa was constitutively phosphorylated to a higher extent than the other isoforms despite identical sequences in the phosphorylated subdomains. DynI xa had a 10-fold higher stoichiometry of diphosphorylation at Ser-774 and Ser-778 than dynI xb and xd combined. Diphosphorylation was 2-fold enriched in nerve terminals relative to whole brain and was preferentially targeted for stimulus-dependent dephosphorylation. Phospho-Ser-851 and Ser-857 were depleted from nerve terminals. Our data reveals major differential phosphorylation of dynI phosphosites in different variants and in different neuronal compartments that would be completely imperceptible to a large-scale phosphoproteomics approach.

Abstract
Excitatory amino acid carrier 1 (EAAC1) belongs to the family of the Na(+)-dependent glutamate carriers. Although the association between defective EAAC1 function and neurologic disease has been repeatedly studied, EAAC1 regulation is not yet fully understood. We have reported that in C6 glioma cells both the activity and membrane targeting of EAAC1 require the integrity of actin cytoskeleton. Here we show that, in the same model, EAAC1 partially co-localizes with actin filaments at the level of cell processes. Moreover, perinuclear spots in which EAAC1 co-localizes with the actin binding protein alpha-adducin are observed in some cells and, consistently, faint co-immunoprecipitation bands between EAAC1 and alpha-adducin are detected. Co-localization and partial co-immunoprecipitation of EAAC1 and adducin are still detectable after cell treatment with phorbol esters, a condition that leads to a protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent increase of EAAC1 expression on the membrane and to the phosphorylation of adducin. A co-immunoprecipitation band was also detected in protein extracts of rat hippocampus. The amount of adducin co-immunoprecipitated with EAAC1 increases after the treatment of C6 cells with retinoic acid, a differentiating agent that induces EAAC1 overexpression in this cell model. Moreover, in clones of C6 cells transfected with a hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged adducin, the bands of EAAC1 immunoprecipitated by an anti-HA antiserum were proportional to EAAC1 expression. These results suggest the existence of a pool of EAAC1 transporters associated with the actin binding protein alpha-adducin in a PKC-insensitive manner.

Abstract
Background Endophilin is a cytoplasmic protein with an important function in clathrin-dependent endocytosis at synapses and elsewhere. Endophilin has a BAR (Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs-homology) domain, which is implicated in the sensing and induction of membrane curvature. Previous structure-function studies of the endophilin-A BAR domain have almost exclusively been made in reduced systems, either in vitro or ex vivo in cultured cells. To extend and complement this work, we have analyzed the role played by the structural features of the endophilin-A BAR domain in Drosophila in vivo. Methodology/Principal Findings The study is based on genetic rescue of endophilin-A (endoA) null mutants with wild type or mutated endoA transgenes. We evaluated the viability of the rescuants, the locomotor behavior in adult flies and the neurotransmission at the larval neuromuscular junction. Whereas mutating the endophilin BAR domain clearly affected adult flies, larval endophilin function was surprisingly resistant to mutagenesis. Previous reports have stressed the importance of a central appendage on the convex BAR surface, which forms a hydrophobic ridge able to directly insert into the lipid bilayer. We found that the charge-negative substitution A66D, which targets the hydrophobic ridge and was reported to completely disrupt the ability of endophilin-BAR to tubulate liposomes in vitro, rescued viability and neurotransmission with the same efficiency as wild type endoA transgenes, even in adults. A similar discrepancy was found for the hydrophilic substitutions A63S/A66S and A63S/A66S/M70Q. The A66W mutation, which introduces a bulky hydrophobic side chain and induces massive vesiculation of liposomes in vitro, strongly impeded eye development, even in presence of the endogenous endoA gene. Substantial residual function was observed in larvae rescued with the EndoA(Arf) transgene, which encodes a form of endophilin-A that completely lacks the central appendage. Whereas a mutation (D151P) designed to increase the BAR curvature was functional, another mutation (P143A, ΔLEN) designed to decrease the curvature was not. Conclusions/Significance Our results provide novel insight into the structure/function relationship of the endophilin-A BAR domain in vivo, especially with relation to synaptic function.

Abstract
Since the emergence of proteomics, much attention has been paid to the development of new technologies for phosphoproteomcis analysis. Compared with large scale phosphorylation analysis at the proteome level, comprehensive and reliable phosphorylation site mapping of individual phosphoprotein is equally important. Here, we present a modified target-decoy database search strategy for confident phosphorylation site analysis of individual phosphoproteins without manual interpretation of spectra. Instead of using all protein sequences in a proteome database of an organism for the construction of a target-decoy database for phosphoproteome analysis, the composite database constructed for phosphorylation site analysis of individual phosphoproteins only included the sequences of the individual target proteins and a decoy version of a small inhomogeneous protein database. It was found that the confidence of phosphopeptide identifications could be effectively controlled when the acquired MS2 and MS3 spectra were searched against the above composite database followed with data processing. Because of the small size of the composite database, the computation time for the database search is very short, which allows the adoption of low-specificity proteases for protein digestion to increase the coverage of phosphorylation site mapping. The sensitivity and comprehensive phosphorylation site mapping of this approach was demonstrated by using two standard phosphoprotein samples of alpha-casein and beta-casein, and this approach was further applied to analyze the phosphorylation of the cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), which resulted in the identification of 17 phosphorylation sites, including five novel sites on four PKA subunits.

Abstract
The Menkes copper-translocating P-type ATPase (ATP7A) is a critical copper transport protein functioning in systemic copper absorption and supply of copper to cuproenzymes in the secretory pathway. Mutations in ATP7A can lead to the usually lethal Menkes disease. ATP7A function is regulated by copper-responsive trafficking between the trans-Golgi Network and the plasma membrane. We have previously reported basal and copper-responsive kinase phosphorylation of ATP7A but the specific phosphorylation sites had not been identified. As copper stimulates both trafficking and phosphorylation of ATP7A we aimed to identify all the specific phosphosites and to determine whether trafficking and phosphorylation are linked. We identified twenty in vivo phosphorylation sites in the human ATP7A and eight in hamster, all clustered within the N- and C-terminal cytosolic domains. Eight sites were copper-responsive and hence candidates for regulating copper-responsive trafficking or catalytic activity. Mutagenesis of the copper-responsive phosphorylation site Serine-1469 resulted in mislocalization of ATP7A in the presence of added copper in both polarized (Madin Darby canine kidney) and non-polarized (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells, strongly suggesting that phosphorylation of specific serine residues is required for copper-responsive ATP7A trafficking to the plasma membrane. A constitutively phosphorylated site, Serine-1432, when mutated to alanine also resulted in mislocalization in the presence of added copper in polarized Madin Darby kidney cells. These studies demonstrate that phosphorylation of specific serine residues in ATP7A regulates its sub-cellular localization and hence function and will facilitate identification of the kinases and signaling pathways involved in regulating this pivotal copper transporter.

Abstract
Recent phosphoproteome analyses using mass spectrometry-based technologies have provided new insights into the extensive presence of protein phosphorylation in various species and have raised the interesting question of how this protein modification was gained evolutionarily on such a large scale. We investigated this issue by using human and mouse phosphoproteome data. We initially found that phosphoproteins followed a power-law distribution with regard to their number of phosphosites: most of the proteins included only a few phosphosites, but some included dozens of phosphosites. The power-law distribution, unlike more commonly observed distributions such as normal and log-normal distributions, is considered by the field of complex systems science to be produced by a specific rich-get-richer process called preferential attachment growth. Therefore, we explored the factors that may have promoted the rich-get-richer process during phosphosite evolution. We conducted a bioinformatics analysis to evaluate the relationship of amino acid sequences of phosphoproteins with the positions of phosphosites and found an overconcentration of phosphosites in specific regions of protein surfaces and implications that in many phosphoproteins these clusters of phosphosites are activated simultaneously. Multiple phosphosites concentrated in limited spaces on phosphoprotein surfaces may therefore function biologically as cooperative modules that are resistant to selective pressures during phosphoprotein evolution. We therefore proposed a hypothetical model by which the modularization of multiple phosphosites has been resistant to natural selection and has driven the rich-get-richer process of the evolutionary growth of phosphosite numbers.

Abstract
Cardiac troponin I (cTnI), the inhibitory subunit of the thin filament troponin-tropomyosin regulatory complex, is required for heart muscle relaxation during the cardiac cycle. Expressed only in cardiac muscle, cTnI is widely used in the clinic as a serum biomarker of cardiac injury. In vivo function of cTnI is influenced by phosphorylation and proteolysis; therefore analysis of post-translational modifications of the intact protein should greatly facilitate the understanding of cardiac regulatory mechanisms and may improve cTnI as a disease biomarker. cTnI (24 kDa, pI approximately 9.5) contains twelve serine, eight threonine, and three tyrosine residues, which presents a challenge for unequivocal identification of phosphorylation sites and quantification of positional isomers. In this study, we used top down electron capture dissociation and electron transfer dissociation MS to unravel the molecular complexity of cTnI purified from human heart tissue. High resolution MS spectra of human cTnI revealed a high degree of heterogeneity, corresponding to phosphorylation, acetylation, oxidation, and C-terminal proteolysis. Thirty-six molecular ions of cTnI were detected in a single ESI/FTMS spectrum despite running as a single sharp band on SDS-PAGE. Electron capture dissociation of monophosphorylated cTnI localized two major basal phosphorylation sites: a well known site at Ser(22) and a novel site at Ser(76)/Thr(77), each with partial occupancy (Ser(22): 53%; Ser(76)/Thr(77): 36%). Top down MS(3) analysis of diphosphorylated cTnI revealed occupancy of Ser(23) only in diphosphorylated species consistent with sequential (or ordered) phosphorylation/dephosphorylation of the Ser(22/23) pair. Top down MS of cTnI provides unique opportunities for unraveling its molecular complexity and for quantification of phosphorylated positional isomers thus allowing establishment of the relevance of such modifications to physiological functions and disease status.
